Symbrock Big Bang 2019 Masterlist

Something In The Water by @mansikkaomenabanaani, @kampfhomo, @usarechan​

Rating: Teen

Summary: Eddie promised him a vacation. So he understands why Venom may sulk for the research he’s planning as soon as they arrive. But the mysterious deaths with even stranger markings have Eddie’s full attention; how often will he get to write a story like this?As Eddie investigates the case Venom’s mood fluctuates, from being overly affectionate one moment to withdrawing altogether the next. Is there more to discover here than what is happening on the Sausalito coastline? Is there something closer to home Eddie needs to be worrying about?

The Runt by @zuzeca-blog, @corpus-draws, @adumbtree-draws

Rating: Mature

Summary: After an unpleasant, premature end to his pending engagement, Edward Brock travels to study at Miskatonic University in Arkham, Massachusetts. There he finds something highly unusual locked in his wardrobe.

Asunder by @monicawoe​, @sdeeys @letyepetyelepetye 

Rating: PG-13

Summary: Eddie and Venom have grown accustomed to their new life together. They patrol every night, keeping San Francisco just a little safer, and keeping Venom fed. But one night, they’re captured, and separated. Eddie wakes up to find himself imprisoned in a glass cell and, for the first time in six months, completely alone.

The Thrill Is Strong But Not So Sweet by @theweddingofthefoxes, @starkickback, @happinessfordeeppeople 

Rating: Mature

Summary: Eddie is always looking for a story that people need to know about, even if it’s a story that could cost him his health or life – like an investigation about illegal tiger breeding. But there are sweeter things in life than breaking those stories, as Venom is happy to remind him.

L'appel du vide by @inthelunaseas, @adumbtree-draws, @whatnopictures​

Rating: Teen

Summary: The call of the void.

Eddie finds himself teetering upon a precipice of no certain return. If he topples over the edge, he’ll be flung into a stomach-lurching terror of uncertainty. If he leans back, he’ll be forced back into the arms of wider society. He’s not sure what terrifies him the more.

Emotional wounds are harder to heal, and his newest companion has no idea where to start.

Back in Black by @thefluffehgamer​, @cocytus-cave​, @kyan-kyan​

Rating: Mature

Summary: Eddie Brock was a reporter, a journalist- and thus had little room for crackpot theories. Bigfoot wasn’t real, couldn’t be. Mothman was just a folktale for tourism. Aliens? More plausible than the last two.

At least, that is until a man called Flash Thompson arrives on his doorstep, uprooting his life and throwing it in the trashcan. He is thrust back into his previous life as a Men in Black agent, with no recollection of such events occurring, his only clues to his lost memory being snippets that are gradually showing through the cracks. Even more bizarre is the fact that he is supposedly a previous, and one of the few surviving, hosts for an alien named Venom.

With time running out, a muddled jumble of conflicting memories and a painfully confusing alien constantly insulting him with backhanded endearments, Eddie barely gets a moment to pry. Considering he’s seen those opalescent eyes in vivid detail within his dreams, Eddie knows there is so much more he has to figure out before the clock hits zero.

Kiss It Better by @scarletmanuka1, @pherryt 

Rating: Explicit

Summary:  After being kidnapped, raped, and tortured, Eddie and Venom must now begin the process of healing and picking up the pieces of their lives. After caring for them in hospital, Dan continues his care after their release, and he soon becomes one of the only people that the couple trust. That care and trust soon turns to longing and desire, not only for one another, but also for revenge.

The Mad Ones by @feathers-and-cigarettes, @1impulsivefloweruniverse, @dragonpressgraphics

Rating: Mature

Summary: “My fellow Mad One: will you come burn with me, deadly spider, or will you yawn and let others take your place across the stars? The move is yours.”

When Anne and Dan finally get married, Eddie and Venom discover a plot that threatens their lives and set out to Hawaii to save their friends. What they discover is far more sinister than they expected and Eddie is forced to make a choice that will challenge his views on life and what it means to be a hero.

The Ever Changing Life of Venom The Loser, Lonely Space Goo of Love by @in2lalaland, @acastleintheair, @x-jean

Rating: Mature

Summary: It’s not easy being a tiny lump of loneliness on a planet where only strength and violence matter. But when the amorphous goo, ironically named Venom after a mishap with what was supposed to be his first host, is given a chance to go on a exploration mission it might just be the chance it needs to find something it had always wanted. Along the way more lonely souls will find their way, whether they want to or not.

A story about loneliness, what it means to be a loser and why you should definitely let an alien tapeworm arrange the seduction of your ex-husband.

Rock a Bye by @tisfan, @fancydragonqueendraws, @boredbyreality

Rating: Explicit

Summary: Before the Life Foundation ship crashed, they sealed Venom’s children in an escape pod. Launched into space, drifting and helpless, the babies sleep, waiting…

It’s up to Eddie and Venom to get the symbiote children before Richard Drake, brother of Carlton and heir to the Life Foundation, can manage it.

Kintsukuroi by @skull-bearer, @thefluffehgamer, @kakushimiko

Rating: Explicit

Summary: The breeze falls, the air thins and Eddie is gasping, struggling for one last breath. It’s right there, trembling with an inner light, offering everything he’d ever wanted. Please, Eddie whispers to the dust, the ashes of the ones he’d loved. Please.

Nebula turns, sees him. “Eddie!” She shouts, but it’s too late, and Eddie’s hand closes around the Time Stone.

At the end of the world, Eddie gets a second chance.

Avengers: Age of Tater Tots by @wolfstarhq, @sappyrogers  

Rating: Explicit

Summary: Eddie and Venom are asked to step in as temporary Avengers while Steve takes time off to reunite with Bucky. As their working partnership develops, so does their personal relationship.

CLAIMED!

Thanks to everyone participating for being patient with me as I get all claims emails sent out. As of right now, all stories are claimed with two artists each! I am extremely excited to see what they all create. 

The next step would be a posting schedule. Keep your eyes peeled!!

[symbrockbigbang]

I know sign ups are over but i was thinking i could offer my services as a pinch hit artist perhaps. I've now drawn eddie and venom 2x and man they're fun. Full disclosure, i *have* read one of the stories in its entirety already as i alphad for it. Hence the offer of a pinch hit and not a sign up when it was open. Depending, of course, how last minute the pinch hit is. :)

Hi there! Thanks for your interest in helping out! We’re always looking for pinch hitters! Please keep an eye out on the blog for any call outs for art pinch hitters, or alternatively, you can still sign up as an artist as long as you won’t claim the story you’ve already alpha read. Artist signup is open until right up to claims.
